Top 10 most EXPENSIVE movie cars to insure: From James Bond to Transformers and Batman

JAMES BOND, Transformers, Batman, Harry Potter and more top the most expensive movie cars and bikes to insure.

Over the years cinema has produced some iconic vehicles from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and the DeLorean time machine to James Bond’s various sports cars.

But what if those cars and bikes were insured in the real world? Turns out they would cost some mighty sums to own.

Car Insurance provider 1ST CENTRAL applied typical assessment criteria such as age and profession of the owner and unusual characteristics of the car including weaponry, alien origin, self-destruct functions, armour and time travel capabilities.

It turns out Bond’s Aston Martin DB5 didn’t even make the list as the MI6 agent would get away without insurance as an Employee of the Crown, so he’s covered by the UK government.

Transformers: The Last Knight star Optimus Prime topped the list costing a cool £1 million to insure.

The Autobot managed to beat Bumblebee, who comes in at No 8 at £10,000, due to a history of collisions, containing a weapon and the fact he has no permanent address.

Another highlight from the list is the DeLorean from Back to the Future, which came in at No 6 at £60,000.

It turns out that Doc Brown and Marty McFly would find their time-travelling causing frequent issues with their annual insurance policy dates, resulting in a need for lots of coverage – and let’s not forget they’re regularly reaching speeds of 88mph.
